[[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly place, good food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Warm inviting family oriented.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Went for an early dinner. Service was spotty even with plenty of staff. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sat in the bar area to watch a basketball game.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wifey had the pork chop with a baked potato. Chop was great - juicy and cooked perfectly. Potato left a lot to be desired.

K-BOB'S Steakhouse - Caliente Chicken Fried Streak with sweet potato fries - Steakhouses Near Me - Fort Stockton, Texas

It was horrible service and horrible food. Had to get our own utensils after waiting forever. Our food was cold, my grilled chucked was literally like beef jerky. I'd see our server just chatting with other workers while we waited! read more

This was our first time at any KBob's. As roadtrippers, we knew it would be better than most places, and few were open for late lunch in this part of the state. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated in the very uncomfortable wooden seats just behind the kid's wall, and the adorable chalk wall for young artists.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The wagon salad bar was huge! I didn't find out if its access came with our meal, though, as the service was not very clear. I found out later it is extra. I ordered the hatch Chile cheese chicken fried steak, which was a very tender and generously topped steak. If you like hatch, you know the flavor is very mild. I think people who avoid spicy can enjoy this dish. The steak was huge, the sides were a bit small, but there was plenty leftover to take home. The service was okay. We might try to find more KBOB'S on our next road trip. This one was nice. read more

We had a delicious ny strip steak - and the salad bar was full of all the great veggies . Our server Jessie was top notch (very helpful .. he knew the menu!) thank you read more

We started with fried pickles and potato skins. The fried pickles were perfection! The loaded potato skins were thick and perfectly cooked. Well covered in cheddar cheese and real bacon bits. Waitress brought us the Ranchero sauce to try with pickles and it is delicious with a nice kiss of heat. The ribeye was perfectly cooked! Super tender and a home run. Chicken fried steak was great and the white gravy is spot on perfection. Everyone enjoyed their food. Our server was fantastic and provided excellent service to us. Definitely a great place to eat and our spot to stop next time we are here in Fort Stockton! read more

K-Bob's is a staple in Ft. Stockton and I love the service and food scene out here. Anytime I'm in town I have to get their chicken fried steak or K-Bob's kabobs. Their dinner rolls and salad wagon are always a hit here. I love that their salad wagon looks like a chuck wagon and the selections are endless from traditional salad to potato salad, soups, beans and desserts. I've been celebrating my birthday every year here since I was 15 and they always make me feel special here. read more

K-BOB'S Steakhouse - The sign out front - Steakhouses Near Me - Fort Stockton, Texas

Second time I've passed through Ft. Stockton and had a fine meal from K-Bob's. This time the family came with: hubs had The Classic (cream gravy) chicken fried steak with green beans, younger kid had cheeseburger, the older kid had chicken tenders - both with fries, and I had The Southwestern (green chile and queso) chicken fried chicken with broccoli. Hubs also had a salad from the salad bar. Oh, and the kids meals came with large scoop of Blue Bell Ice Cream. If you're in the mood for chicken fried steak/chicken and haven't had any in months, maybe years, this is the place. So good!! Hubs rated his a 10, kids both rated 4 out of 5, so I averaged it to 5 stars. Service was great!

K-BOB'S Steakhouse - Menu - Steakhouses Near Me - Fort Stockton, Texas

Can you give 0 stars? I was just served the worst restaurant meal I've been served in my life. As a fort Stockton native this is embarrassing. Maybe now I know why the place is empty. Honestly the worst meal I've ever been served and the staff and management didn't care. How dare K BOB'S post this response to my truthful review. I didn't eat the whole steak. I couldn't eat one bite as the steak was so overcooked and tough. One young employee insulted me when I asked for a manager. Neither the manager nor bartender tried to make anything "right". I paid for the inedible meal and left. read more

The long wait was not as bad as the lack of service that we received. If you expect people to come in and enjoy their meal, please be attentive to them. read more

This is the first time I've been to a K-Bob steak house! The service was phenomenal! The menu had a variety of steakhouse fare. The salad bar was beyond any salad bar I've ever seen. Our dinner was delicious- I definitely would not miss this place if you're in the area! read more

K-BOB'S Steakhouse - Smothered hamburger steak! The onion ring didn't come with the dinner it was a shared item - Steakhouses Near Me - Fort Stockton, Texas

Food was great. Was brought the wrong drink. It was the server's fault. I already put my mouth on it by the time I realized. They ended up charging me for the drink I ordered plus the wrong drink/server's mistake. I asked for the $5 drink to be removed from the bill, they said no. Every single time in my life in the past the server lets you keep the drink if you want it (it's gonna be wasted after all) and they would never dare to put it on the bill and certainly not deny you if you ask for it to be removed. Left feeling like whoever was in charge has never run a restaurant before. Shameful. Also they charge a 3% fee for debit card use which is illegal in Texas right? read more

Kinda disappointed in this place. While all the servers were very nice, the food left a lot to be desired. I ordered the smokehouse burger which had it's own photo on the menu and looked amazing. When I got to eating the burger though it was incredibly dry and I ended up not eating half of it. The fries were just okay. Overall, just disappointed that I spent my money here. read more

Whoever said this place was good, lied. The food that I ordered had potential to be good but the ball was dropped hard. The menu doesn't really have a lot to choose from for me but that's not necessarily a bad thing. What I had wanted ( a BLT) originally was only available for lunch hours which is a shame because my experience probably would had been better. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger that came with fries and chips and queso to start. The upside is that they do have a happy hour that starts at four but it's only beer and margaritas. Their margaritas are huge so I got a mango marg and a lemon drop. The drinks have to be the best thing that they have and it'll be a shame if they weren't based on how bad the food was. My queso came out and the cheese had curdled like it was sitting in a pot until I ordered it. The flavor was regular for queso not spicy at all but the texture took me out, the chips were fresh and crispy but I doubt they make them. Now for this burger...I probably would've been better off buying it from the gas station. The beef was thick and dry like a biscuit the bacon I could tell if it was crispy or old, like it looked cooked but I couldn't bite into it, it was way too hard. The fries looked good, but they seemed like it was left out and reheated. I could tell they were not fresh because they weren't hot but warm. If I stopped into this town again I would only come here for the drinks....maybe. Definitely order a drink if you plan on eating here. It'll make the food taste better. But more than likely I'll go elsewhere, there's a better burger place just down the street and I wouldn't have to get out my car. read more

The food was just OK. We had the New steak sandwich and chicken fried chicken. I asked another the steak sandwich and was told it was sliced steak. It was diced pieces of steak. Served between two slices of dry toast. It came with mashed potatoes and corn. My chicken fried chicken came with a side of gravy and a side of green beens. Apparently mashed potatoes were a side not included. I ended up also ordering a one time through the salad bar to finish the meal. Service was just OK. read more

Fried pickles and top shelf margaritas worth it. Ribeye was good. Steak had some gristle, still worth the stop. Jenn was our server. Thank you read more

We just drove in from San Diego and had an excellent steak dinner here and the service was exceptionally attentive (server was Alicia). As we had read other reviews about just being a so-so place, we had lowered our expectations, but were very pleasantly surprised at how good all the food was - from the Salad Wagon to the steaks to the baked potatoes. Just a tip - order the full Cowboy ribeye as the Rodeo ribeye is half the size (cut thinner) and grills to fast. If you want a perfect medium rare ribeye, the Cowboy cut is for you! read more

We stopped in on a recommendation from our hotel. We were really pleased. Our server was Ray, who was super helpful with the drinks and foods menu. She was quick with service and a smile. The steaks were perfectly prepared and the beers were cold and delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We would come back to this ranch vibe place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

It was a very busy night when we ate but our waitress still did a great job even though it was clear she was very busy! My steak was delicious and very well seasoned. The baked potato was a baked potato but overall it was a very enjoyable meal. read more

Great food, especially given I was on a road trip. Great service, too. I will definitely make this a regular stop while in town.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Female traveling nearby alone, so the anti-2A sign as soon as you walk in wasn't good news.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Then the hostess smart-mouthed me. Between that and the not so great reviews, I walked out. Hard pass & ai drove down the road to their competitor where I'm enjoying good food, great service, and eating in a safe environment. That's how it's done. read more

What an adorable place. It has a bar, outdoor area and family dining area. We took our servers suggestion and started with the chips and queso. It was very tasty. For an entree, we shared the Ribeye steak (medium) that came with two sides. We choose the mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. And warm rolls on the side. The steak was like butter. Needless to say I was about to order my own. lol. The mashed potatoes were tasty. We got both the white and brown gravy. The brown gravy was tastier. The Mac and cheese was very good. We were sooo amazed that we found this great gem in a small town. Would definitely go again if passing by. PS. I have never seen a place sooooo clean. The servers were cleaning everything!! The seats, the walls, they moved the booths to clean against the wall!!! I loved it. Great job!! PSS... a local police officer came in for dinner and an out of towner (he said he was from Arkansas) thanked her for her service to the town. Then another person wanted to buy her dinner but she hadn't ordered yet. The place loooked real safe. read more

Salad bar was great. Lots of variety. Burger and fries were average. They have a full bar but don't quite know how to do an old fashioned. Service was the least favorable of the experience.

Absolutely the worst service by Rhea (Female Waitress) not sure of spelling. Food order was not correct, ordered med rare steak and received a blue mooing steak with zero flavor.

We expected this to be a buffet type place, it was not. The only buffet type thing was the salad bar, salad bar was expensive, $9.95 for one trip, expensive and salad items did not look good. However, the food we ordered was delicious and service was very good!! read more

What I said after my first bite of my (Senior Citizen) grilled chicken breast: Wow! It was delightfully less salty than what I usually get at restaurants across the country. You could really taste that succulent chicken. My baked potato side was baked perfectly. It was so nice to have a healthy option while traveling. I didn't need a huge portion, but the price was low enough that it felt like a huge meal. The potato wasn't a small one either. My husband got the single trip salad bar and added a side of chicken breast. He could have gotten the salad as a Senior multiple trip option, but the plate was large enough that another trip would have been overkill. It was so nice to find a high quality salad bar with a wide variety (the type we used to have before the pandemic made them extinct). Our service was top notch. We felt welcome and valued. Jessie M knows how to make a meal wonderful. read more

I never write food reviews but this place deserves how awful of an experience I just had. ordered the campout. Medium rare. 30 minutes later I got raw, cold and still mooing steak. even the piece of bacon that was wrapped around the steak was pathetic. not only my entree was sadly depressing also the service. I ordered SWEET TEA, ended up getting unsweet. My party all got water which took over 15 minutes to receive. an overall horrible experience. thanks k-bobs for popping my first cherry for reviewing a restaurant. read more

We were very excited to try the chicken fried steak here. It was ok.... The mashed potatoes were bland, but hot. The salad bar was excellent, but we added salad to our meals, as well as the fried okra. So with water and two chicken fried steaks, potatoes, salad, and okra, it was $61. The meat was just a bit thick and bland, a bit stringy. The gravy didn't seem homemade- tasted like a mix. Service was good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambience was nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was just too much $ for a fairly small steak that had no redeeming qualities. I expected much better. Sorry. I was really hoping for an excellent meal. $30 er plate for ... almost ok food. read more

Food seemed delicious but caused foodborne illness. Either the Green Chili on the burger or the Broccoli.

We rolled into Ft Stockton near sunset this past Monday, 6/5/2023, after driving all day. We were tired and hungry, the operative word here being hunnnnng,,,gry. We asked the hotel guy where we could get a good dinner and he recommended K-Bob's to us. So that's where we went. It was literally just a couple of feet down the street. We entered and the place seemed pretty busy but we were quickly seated on the "porch," handed some menus and left to look it over. Eventually our server showed up to take our drink order. We were pretty excited that we could get Topo Chico with lime. Except after that, she wandered off to take some more orders and do a bunch of other stuff before finally getting back to bringing the drinks to us. Tired, hunger, thirsty. Eventually she comes back to get our dinner order. I order the 10-oz rib eye, medium rare. She says they're out, how about the 16-oz? Now I'm thinking she just wants to upcharge me since I'm from out of town and tired, hungry, thirsty. Now I'm thinking why don't they just cut the 16-oz down to 10-oz or she could have said we're sorry that we're out of the 10-oz, how about the 16-oz for the price of the 10-oz. Now that would have been a great deal. The menu also stated that the steak would be slathered with butter when it was served so I had to get our server to understand I could not have butter and to please please make sure the kitchen didn't get any butter on or near the steak (or anything else for that matter). But I was tired, hungry, thirsty, so I said OK. Then I'm thinking I can take the leftovers back to the hotel and have it tomorrow while back on the road. Now I had to pick two sides. Most of the selections were potatoes, pasta, rice or full of cheese or dairy. Things I can't really eat anyway. But there was fried okra, which I love, so I asked for that. I also wanted some of the green beans but that was smothered in butter and couldn't be made without it because that's the way it's prepared so I couldn't eat that. So how about the broccoli casserole but that turned out to be loaded with cheese. Well, what about the steamed broccoli? OK, that was OK. Next, my wife ordered the brisket sandwich. But, we're told they were out of that. How is that possible? Our server offered some of the other brisket dishes that were sliced brisket but somehow the chopped type of brisket couldn't be made. That's where you take sliced brisket and chop it up. So wifey, by this time, also tired, hungry and thirsty, looks at the k-bobs and starts asking if the beef and chicken k-bobs are good. Guess what our server said. The plate came with one of each type of k-bob but what wifey really wanted was the sweet potato fries on the side. Now wifey want to know our server's name. It is Boo. Probably a nickname, And so a conversation ensues and we learn her entire life story. Pretty interesting for such a young lady. But, finally, she's off to the kitchen to put the order in. Wifey hears Boo giving the kitchen the what-for about butter on the steak and I am very grateful for that. Boo really was taking care of things for us. Eventually, and I do mean eventually, food comes out. My steak is cooked medium rare. I mean a real medium rare and was really good. And no butter anywhere. Wifey's k-bobs were good too. Very tasty. Wifey is very happy. Everything was the way we finally ordered it. Boo took care of everything and we were very happy with coming here for dinner that night. The leftovers were finished off the next day and still were very flavorful. So, all in all, a big success. If you're on the road and stopping in Ft Stockton for the night, feel free to stop here for dinner if you're in the mood for steaks and skewers. And ask for Boo. Excuse the length of this review, I'm practicing to write a book. read more

I hate to leave a negative review but I don't want another traveler to suffer. This place has fallen off since the pandemic and their long downward slide continues. First a few compliments -- I used to like this place. The atmosphere is alright and the service people are polite. It's filled to the brim with young people working, which is always a positive. But the reality of K-BOB's in 2025 is that their food is way overpriced now and the quality of the meal doesn't match the premium price they charge. I'm not the most handsome man in America, I get it, but the waitress didn't even make eye contact with me. I frequent places like Longhorn and Black Angus -- and compared to K-BOB's they're practically the White House dining room. They say you get what you pay for -- that's mostly true in life but not at K-BOB's where $38 gets you an unseasoned and charred 14oz Ribeye. They've got a new menu and thankfully a plain baked potato and a bland tasting sidekick is included along with your unsalted steak. Typically I'll eat a carefully prepared steak the way it comes -- its natural juices and flavor are delicious -- it's why we love steak. K-BOB's steaks are so blah, it's the first time I've had to request steak sauce to make it palatable. Maybe they know they're lacking because they've got Heinz and A-1 available. On the bright side, the temperature was right. Listen, Fort Stockton is a nice town with nice people, but this is no sprawling metropolis. K-BOB's is the ONLY steakhouse for miles and they know it. They've got you right where they want you, buddy. Perhaps it's harder and more expensive for K-BOB's to get supplies, or maybe they're getting ripped off, and they pass that cost onto the consumer -- but whatever has happened here over the last 7-8 years is pretty sad. Would it kill them to prepare these overpriced cuts of beef before carelessly charring them up? I guess it would. Know what you're in for before you visit. In hindsight, I should've gotten McDonalds this time. read more

After a long drive from Phoenix, all I wanted was a good meal and some rest. K-Bob's Steakhouse was recommended by the front desk staff at the hotel. Glad I followed the advice.
